"I don't need advice from the likes of you," Bethany retaliated. What made this woman think she had the power to tell anyone in this room what to do? She was just a leech sticking unto Eli.
"Likes of you? What exactly does that mean? Be honest with what you've heard about me," Helen urged Bethany to speak freely. She would take what was said with a grain of salt. Helen just wanted to know what the people looking at her were saying.
It delighted Bethany to speak what she heard about Helen Reed. "For starters, you're nothing but a gold digger who is leeching off of Eli. For example, how you're funding your restaurant, the clothes, and the whole new lifestyle. It's exactly why you befriended Jennifer Hodge. Thanks to being her friend you managed to run into Eli."
